Stephen Fry Sues Tech Conference Over Stage Fall
Stephen Fry Sues Tech Conference Over Stage Fall
Stephen Fry is suing tech conference organisers for up to £100,000 after a fall from the CogX stage at the O2 Arena, claiming multiple injuries.
Stephen Fry has filed a High Court claim against conference organisers for up to £100,000 following a fall from the CogX stage at the O2 Arena in London in 2023, injuring him seriously.
The actor says he suffered a broken hip, a broken right leg, a fractured pelvis and multiple ribs as a result of the incident during a talk at CogX.
The claim was lodged with the High Court, and no hearing date has yet been scheduled.
CogX is a major technology conference, and the case raises questions about stage safety and risk management at live events at large venues. Fry has long been a prominent figure in entertainment, and the outcome could influence future safety measures and liability considerations for event organizers.
